I think SYD could take some of Esky's beating.

You would think they would go for Musket Man route.
That seemed to work out ok.

Really? 2-5?

I will be betting against at that price...I don't think T. Pletcher will be looking to empty the tank here.

Mr. Byk has Tiz the One listed as going to the Wood.
The DRF article never mentioned him.

That race is gonna be a great betting race if most of the horses that are nom'd end up running.

Munnings
Warrior's Reward
Musket Man
Bribon
Wall Street Wonder
Elusive Warning..................just to name a few.

I think Understatement and Cool Coal Man will go in the Excelsior.

Bribon is not supposed to run in the Carter though I think Digger is running ( not that it matters ).

Understatement is going to the CT Classic. I don't know where Cool Coal Man is running though I haven't seen him mentioned. I could ask Nick tomorrow.

As for the Excelsior, I know Hushion is running Goldsville. I spoke with him the other day, and he's really excited about Iron Man John ( as he should be ), but he's missing this race with a minor problem. I think he said he was hoping for the Westchester with him.

Asked Haskin last night about Tiz the One as I hadn't heard anything. He didn't know either. Will try to find out today.
